Many viewers will recognize this actress from series like 'The Big Bang Theory' and 'The Gilded Age'. She is often cast as an elitist person, a strict mother, and even the stepmother of Cinderella in 'Into the Woods' (2014). And now, she will be one of the clients submitted to Masha's strange therapies in 'Tranquillum'.
Canadian actress and writer Annie Murphy will also join the group of 'Nine Perfect Strangers' in Nicole Kidman's retreat. She's known for 'Schitt's Creek,' for which she won an Emmy. Murphy also appeared in 'Black Mirror' and 'Russian Doll,' among others.
The Australian actor Murray Bartlett won an Emmy for his role as the unhinged hotel manager in 'The White Lotus' - another example of a series that returned with a new cast and new stories but with the same premise: rich people getting entertained (or in trouble) in luxury resorts.
This British actress is known for 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow', 'The Originals', and 'Of Kings and Prophets'. Maisie Richardson-Sellers joins 'Nine Perfect Strangers' as the client Wolfie.
A singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, King Princess makes her acting debut in the second season of 'Nine Perfect Strangers.' The artist was born Mikaela Mullaney Straus in 1998.
Born in 1938, this Norwegian veteran actress worked with Ingmar Bergman and was nominated for an Oscar twice. Movie platform iMDB notes that her last time filming was in 2012, so we are very curious as to her role in 'Nine Perfect Strangers.'
This Filipina actress, known for her participation in 'Triangle of Sadness', a film nominated for three Oscars, also joins the cast of 'Nine Perfect Strangers.'
This young Austrian actor will play the client Martin in 'Nine Perfect Strangers' S2. He is known from series as 'Transatlantic' and 'Parlement,' an international and multilingual production.

The cast of the previous season was characterized by a star-studded cast, including Melissa McCarthy, Michael Shannon, Luke Evans, Samara Weaving, Bobby Cannavale, and Regina Hall.
Although the series remained under the radar amidst many post-pandemic releases, actors were recognized by award committees. Melissa McCarthy was nominated for a Critics Choice Award and Nicole Kidman, Michael Shannon, and Bobby Cannavale were nominated for a Satellite Award.
In the series, the Tranquillum wellness resort was set in California. However, the series was filmed in Australia due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In season 2, Tranquillum will be located in the Swiss Alps.
